Default My “Grand Sport” Miata

Ok don’t bust on me too hard. I bought a damaged 94 C package Miata last year. Fixed it up and decided to keep it since it is low miles and was 2 owner with all records from new. I only have about 2k in the car.

So today I was bored and had some 3m 1080 wrap remnants left over from doing a hood stinger on my C7. Color is g212 metallic black which is super close to carbon flash. So an half hour of laying out some knife tape and this is what I came up with.

Came out well but clicked on thread expecting a Miata with a 96 LT4. I’ve never ripped on Miatas for being chick cars. For every Vette guy doing that, there’s a Viper or Lambo owner calling a Vette “cute”. But if people think that I’d have zero qualms with that stigma in an MX-5 with an LS3.

This. People that hate on cars aren't real car enthusiasts. There's a reason the MX5 is a legend. I wish I could fit in a Miata but its not in the cards for me.
